The virtual asset transaction at the virtual asset exchange Bithumb, including order execution, has been temporarily suspended.
Bithumb announced that it would conduct system checks due to temporary execution delays starting from 11:30 p.m. on the 2nd. The notice came at 11:45 p.m., approximately 15 minutes after the system check began, and as of the 3rd, transactions have been suspended across the Bithumb app, mobile web, and PC.
In the notice, Bithumb said, "If there is an abnormal difference between the prices at domestic and foreign exchanges and Bithumb's quotes after the service check is completed, pending orders may be canceled to protect customers holding pending orders," and requested, "Please cancel any buy and sell pending amounts before the service check if possible."
